DOOR AND A WINDOW CHECK This application contains matter shown in abandoned case Ser. No. 472,398, filed July 6, 1965 and titles A DOOR AND A WINDOW CHECK, and also matter shown in abandoned case Ser. No. 31 1,067, filed Sept. 24, 1963, and titled CHECK OF OBJECTS MOVE- MENT.

SUMMARY In an article of manufacture, this invention relates to a new, novel and useful improvement in a door and window check, and to shown modifications thereof, each made for comprising an elongated or/and rectangular different shape, and any desirable size, and a resilient material, for example, a rubber, which can be self adhering, whenever desired, or a steel, or a plastic, according to a plan for using a said check. A said resilient material of a check resiliently indents under pressure from foreign objects without marring them.

For a purpose of pivotally and slideably attaching a said check with a first foreign object, for example, a screweye, or a rope or cord, or a rod, or a link of a chain, and a shelf within a container, and the like, a said check can be modified and comprise either:

an opening portion penetrating therethrough, and, whenever desirable, a slit portion leading into its said opening portion, or,

a rope-like portion tapering therefrom to its own free end portion while simultaneously decreasing in said resilientcy thereof so that said free end portion of instant rope-like portion can be looped onto itself and made into a knot attachable with a said first foreign object, whenever desired, or,

a groove portion for detachable attaching with a said first foreign object;

overall further described in detail hereinafter.

An object for making a said check is so that it can be pivotally or/and slidably attached with a said first foreign object which in turn can be supportably attached with a second foreign object, for example, either a frame of a door, or, a link of a chain straddling an opened door and its frame, or, a rod of a shelf contained within a container closeable by its door; overall for placing a said check nearby a closeably openable door for engaging a said check with a said opened door in a checking position for holding said door open; details of which follow.

When a door is open, an opening portion forms between it and its frame; at a top, and at a bottom of said door, and at opposite sides thereof; into which a said check can be removably inserted for checking said door open.

A check comprising a said elongated or rectangular shape comprises a larger length size compared with its width size, thereby a selection of a length and width size of a check can be made for engaging a closing opened door and its frame for sizing an opening portion between them.

In drawings forming a part of this application:

FIG. I shows a view of a check comprising an opening portion penetrating therethrough and through which a rope is penetrated and ends-wardly knotted for suitably maintaining attachments shown and described.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of said check and details of its attachment with a screweye originally shown in FIG. 1.

FIG. 3 shows a said check modified for comprising a ropelike portion tapering therefrom.

FIG. 4 shows a perspective view of a container having its shelf attached therein and its door checked by another modified check pivotally attached with a rod of said shelf.

FIG. 5 shows an enlarged perspective view of details related to P16. 4 structure.

FIG. 6 shows an enlarged view of more details related to FIG. 4 structure.

FIG. 7 shows a plan view of another modified check inserted into an opening portion between an open door and its frame which are straddled by a known door chain preventing said door from closing and limiting a size of its opening portion.

FIG. 8 shows a plan view of another modified check attachable with a link of a chain, at least.

FIG. 9 shows a view of another modified check-link for uniteably linking with and between separated links of a chain as a link thereof.

DESCRIPTION FIG. 11 shows a group of said checks, each comprising a check member 5, 6, and 7, each comprises elongation in its different shape and size, and each comprising an opening portion 4 penetrating therethrough, and each is made from a said resilient material in a first form thereof, and in a second form thereof each can also comprise a self-adhering ability, too.

A rope or cord 3 first foreign object is slideably penetrated through each said opening portion 4 and through an unseen closed eye portion 3 of a screweye 10 second foreign object, and a knot 8 and 11 formed and sized at opposite end portions of said rope or cord 3 for imprisoning them thereon, respectively.

An example of using each is shown by using check member 5 shown placed width-wardly into an opening portion 12 formed between and by an opened door 2 third foreign object and its frame 1 fourth foreign object, for engaging them and checking said door 2 open. An opening portion 12 can be larger when a lengthward size of check member 5 is used instead, exampled in FIG. 7.

Said door 2 is hingedly 16 attached with said frame 11, and when said door 2 is opened, an exampled said opening portion 12 forms at a top and at a bottom and at each of opposite sides of them into which a said check member can be engaged, FIG. 7 shows same happening at a side of said door 2 opposite to its hinged side. Thereby a check member can have any desirable shape and size. A said resilient material is preferred because a check member resiliently indents when pressurably engaged between a said door 2 and its frame 1 following a form of said door 2 for example, and is thereby firmly held between them. And when a check member material is self-adhering, it will releasably self-adhere in its place between them also.

FIG. 2 shows an enlarged view of a check member 13 comprising opening portion 4 penetrating therethrough and penetrated by a said rope or cord 3 comprising knotted opposite end portions 14 and 15. Herein a said screweye It) eye portion 9 is open for showing same, and instant rope 3 is slideably contained therein at which time eye portion 9 can be closed, if desired, to

a size smaller than knot 15 for imprisoning check member 13 on said rope 3. Check member 13 opening portion 4 is smaller than knot 14 which can not reversibly penetrate therethrough, thereby check member 13 is imprisoned.

FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a check member 5a preferably comprising a said resilient material and comprising an elongated rectangular shape, and a knottable portion 3a tapering therefrom to its free end portion smallest periphery thereof while simultaneously decreasing in resilientcy while tapering so that at its said free end portion, it can be folded over onto itself and knotted. exampled in said FIG. 1 at numeral 8, which can be attached with a screweye l eye portion 9, in a manner in which said rope or cord 3 is attached in said FIG. 2, or with a link of a chain, as hereinafter said in FIG. 7.
